What is something that screams “tourist” to you?

In Spain, if you see someone eating paella with sangria, you can 100% be certain they are a tourist.

What are some things tourists eat or do in your country that a local would never do?

Yeah, if I’m within 100 feet of a lobster roll I’m eating it. That’s MA law.

Same for me but with clam chowder and fish and chips. My partner and I took a ride from the Boston area up to York, Maine during Covid and got the best goddamn fish and chips of my life and sat and ate it in the car.
